I love that this whole thing has become a weird social experiment. Your writing is great and this whole blog is very compelling! For the record most people I play in Masters are very mannered.

It's funny that the OP gets so much shit for being BM while, I imagine, it's mostly his opponents that do the bming. And don't give me that "waste my time" and "unenjoyable games" crap, if we'd all play like our opponents expect us to this game would suck balls. =(

I didn't think that I would enjoy that as much as I did. Props to you sir.
Edit: The whole worker rush thing is kinda fun - I have done it once in diamond league. I qued up for a game and as it started my friends showed up. Not wanting to just leave, I A moved my workers across the map and won. Don't really know how it worked but it did.

I don't know why people are so receptive to this. Portrait farming is kind of dumb.

One of the most entertaining reads (all 4 parts) I've had in a while. Both for the entertaining story and the deep introspective commentary to go with it.

Agreed, my friend. I wish people wouldn't be so uptight about it. If anything he's helping the bronzies learn how to defend worker rush. It's not like Blizzard doesn't allow it.

Maybe the losses to worker rush will motivate them to get better and they will defeat the worker rusher eventually; returning the favour

If anyone is upset at this blog then I am amused by them. All this does is put a face.. well, a monikor I suppose, on the widely perpetrated strategy for portraits.

Whatever I can't care either way. You're teaching newbies the valuable lesson everyone must earn- to get to the next level you have to learn to beat your leagues cheese first.
